A couple of guys at my work wrote this and it was so funny I had to share it with the world.
Gen. 1:1
Lo, the earth was without form and void. And the spirit of
T_ch Su__ort dids’t move upon the waters.
And there was light.
Gen. 1:15
And the customer dids’t call su__ort and said. “All of thine
other creations hast a mate, yet I am alone”
And Su__ort dids’t say, “Coulds’t thou send us some mud,
that we may fashion another in your likeness, and she shall be a mate
for you”
The customer, being slow, dids’t send his own rib, and T_ch
Su__ort said “That shall have to do”
Gen. 1:37
And T_ch Su__ort said unto the customer “Our USER INTERFACE
is exceedingly easy to follow”
“Thou shalt do as you please, but thou shalt not eat of the
apple” and the customer said “Of which apple dost though speak?”
And T_ch Su__ort sayeth “Do NOT eat of any apple, for there
shall be grevious consequences, if thou dost eat the WRONG apple”
Gen. 2:15
And lo, did T_ch Su__ort receive an call from the customer.
And the customer dids’t say “Help, I am naked, and why doth this bear
attack me? This hath not occurred before”
And T_ch Su__ort said “Dids’t thou eat the apple?” And the
customer replied “Nay, I have not even seen an apple. What is this
“apple” anyway?”
And T_ch Su__ort dids’t say “I showed unto thee an apple,
and you dids’t promise not to eat of it” the customer replied “I have
educated myself, and I doth know all of the fruits of this land, verily,
I know more than even Su__ort himself. I woulds’t know if I had eaten
the BAD apple”
And T_ch Su__ort said “What dost there be an apple core in
thy hand? Verily, it appears that I need to reboot this system.”
And the earth was without form and void… Again.

Where is the line in comedy? My site has a lot of offensive material on it. Does some of it go too far?
A recent image of Donald Duck saying “Goddamn stupid n***r” caused some uproar and complaints. Is that image any more offensive than a picture of Dora The Explorer jumping the fence? From my perspective I think it may be. It seems to me that there is more hatred and emotion behind people who use the N word as opposed to many (not all) of the other racial slurs.
They should all be handled with care. The goal of my sites is to make people laugh. Some of the images are indeed going to offend people, but how do I know when it goes too far? I’ve removed the Donald image, but what about the other images? Am I not being just as offensive to their races too? I am wondering if it comes down to context. Where the image of Donald really seems to be hate filled and cruel, the image of Dora is meant to be a joke and not taken seriously. But some people will find it offensive. That’s why art is subjective.
Perhaps it comes back to the power of the N word itself. It was used to keep an entire race of people in slavery and fear. The other words seem to be meant as insults much like calling someone fat. Is that too loose of a comparison? Perhaps it is. I’m not sure why, but the N word seems to hold more power in it than other racial slurs.
Perhaps is more like the difference between the word “fuck” and the word “shit”. Both are “bad words” that we never let our children say and try to shield their ears from, but fuck obviously is more of a bad word. Why is it more of a bad word? Because we let it have more power than other words. Perhaps that’s the same with the N word.
I wonder if there are similarities to the words “fag” or “gay”. For a long time they were used as derogatory slurs for the homosexual population. They had great power over those that are gay, but at some point we took them as labels of pride. I think the key difference here is they don’t have centuries of slavery behind them to give them more power. I think in this country and in this time there is a line that we shouldn’t cross and I did. I apologize to anyone who was offended by the image of Donald. It was never my intention to bring hate into your lives.
I would love to hear your thoughts and comments on my insane ramblings above. I’m not a writer so I’m not sure if any of it made sense please leave a comment and let me know what you’re thinking.
So I’ve decided to launch a couple of new comment sites.
My current comment generator isn’t going anywhere. I’m definitely still going to be tweaking it and making improvements. I mean after all it’s the one that got me off the ground. In doing it, I have learned so much about security and code optimization.
My new sites are PetComments.com and OnlyGayComments.com
PetComments.com is all about animals and pets. I wanted to break out my currently overly generic animal contents into an easier to use format. I hope you like it.
OnlyGayComments.com is of course all about men. I know my current site has a bunch of them, but this new site is 100% dedicated to men. For those of you old enough there’s even an adult section. DON’T use them on myspace, hi5, or other sites that displaying that is against their terms. Go to sites like justguys.net where displaying that kind of content is allowed. There’s bunches out there.
Let me know what you all think of them. I put a lot of hard word into them so I’m hoping you like, but please don’t hold back if you hate them.
So I’m getting kind of excited. My work is sending me to Orlando for a conference. So I decided to stay a few extra days and go to Disney World. I love Disney. Anyways, the trip is coming up and I’m getting all giddy, like a school girl. I can’t wait. I promise I’ll bring back lots and lots of pics for you all. The bummer thing is that some friends of mine were going to come with me, but they can’t come. So I’m going by myself. Is that sad that I’m going to Disney World by myself? Oh well can’t way. TTFN!!
